Romantic views from Love benches in Slovenia Green destinations

If you need an excuse to bring your special someone to Slovenia, we think that the fact that it’s the only country in the world with ‘love’ in its name is a pretty solid one. And to make it even better, you can take your better half on a hike with the goal of reaching a Love bench. What’s more special than a scenic spot, a cozy bench, and a nice view?
